The job will be posted for two weeks beginning Sept. 8, followed by two weeks of applicant screening and then interviews before bringing final candidates for public interview at the Oct. 28 board meeting.

Board president Peter Lindquist and treasurer Andrew Adamowski will comprise the search committee to do the initial screening of applicants. After an executive session, the board decided that Evergreen Park and Recreation's recreation manager Ellen O'Connor and lake house supervisor Brad Bednar will act as interim co-executive directors until the position is filled.

"We owe it to the partons, we owe it to the staff and we owe it to the community to do this as quickly as possible," board member Janet Doyle said.
